Notably, the flagship cryptocurrency has been trading between $62,000-$74,000 over the past two months but has not reached the upper end of its range since late March.<\/p>\n<p>Now, BTC is retesting the $69,000-$70,000 resistance area, which could set the stage for a crucial short-term move. Market observer Ted Pillows <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TedPillows\/status\/2041082382821024255?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">stated<\/a> that if the cryptocurrency reclaims this zone, a rally towards $72,000-$74,000 could happen.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, a rejection would likely see Bitcoin drop to the $65,000-$66,000 support zone, where price has held over the past month. In an X analysis, Ali Martinez noted that the UTXO Realized Price Distribution (URPD) shows the flagship cryptocurrency is \u201cstuck in a \u2018No-Trade Zone.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Per the post, \u201cthe URPD shows exactly where every BTC last moved,\u201d with a massive cluster of holders between $70,685-$63,111. \u201cAs long as we trade here, millions of holders are incentivized to defend their \u2018buy-in,\u2019 creating a natural floor,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, analyst Max Crypto affirmed that BTC\u2019s \u201cdecision time is very close,\u201d suggesting that it could see its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-absolute-bottom-final-shakeout-is-near\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">next big move<\/a> unfold in the upcoming weeks, based on its previous price action.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-890732\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/HFN8fB3bgAAX_m7.png?w=860&amp;resize=860%2C509\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"860\" height=\"509\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As he explained, the leading crypto has shown the same performance over the past year, consolidating for 8-15 weeks before the last four big moves. This time, Bitcoin has been moving sideways for 8 weeks, entering its 9th consolidation week on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Based on its previous performance, the market watcher considers that \u201cBTC\u2019s next big move will most likely happen by mid-April, irrespective of US-Iran talks, and will probably be to the downside.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Where Is BTC\u2019s Final Support Located?<\/h2>\n<p>In his X post, Martinez also <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/alicharts\/status\/2041071921597432199?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">analyzed<\/a> multiple patterns and on-chain metrics to map out BTC\u2019s high-probability accumulation zones and potential bottom.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, he highlighted that Bitcoin is approaching its most significant support floor since 2017: an ascending trendline that has guarded its price for nine years, and every retest has preceded a parabolic expansion.<\/p>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-true-bottoming-formation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">trendline<\/a> currently sits around the $60,000 and $56,000 levels and could be \u201cthe potential launchpad for the next major bull cycle\u201d if it holds.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, he outlined three metrics that could mark the \u201cline in the sand\u201d and the best buying opportunities for BTC: the Cumulative Value Days Destroyed (CVDD), the MVRV pricing bands, and the Long-Term Holder (LTH) Realized Price.<\/p>\n<p>The CVDD, which \u201ctracks when \u2018Old Hands\u2019 pass BTC to new buyers, creating a structural foundation for the entire market,\u201d is currently around $47,960. Meanwhile, the MVRV 0.8 Band, located around $43,647, has historically marked the bottom and \u201cthe exact zone where BTC sellers exhaust themselves and the \u2018Strong Hands\u2019 take over the supply.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, Martinez noted that the LTH Realized Price, currently at $49,387, is often the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-weekly-close-price-45-crash-coming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">final support<\/a>. However, he added that if the price dips below this level, \u201cit signals a final capitulation phase, especially if the -0.2 Std Dev band at $36,657 is hit\u201d at what he deemed \u201cGenerational Buy\u201d levels.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-890731\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/BTCUSDT_2026-04-06_09-49-37.png?w=860&amp;resize=860%2C527\" alt=\"Bitcoin, btc, btcusdt\" width=\"860\" height=\"527\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Bitcoin (BTC) attempts to reclaim a key resistance area, an analyst has suggested that the end of BTC\u2019s two-month consolidation could be weeks away, potentially opening \u201cgenerational opportunities\u201d before the next bull run.
